Just a Note

As excited as I was to have some early warm weather… I’m wishing for it to cool down a bit! Such a warm winter here in NW Florida.ï»¿ Any how… time for craft festivals and spring cards. So, here is a totally non- wintery card and note book set. Â MyÂ Â Wordbirds are perfect for Spring! I love opening the digi image in Photoshop and â€œfillingâ€ their wings and bodies with colors and patterns. I enjoy printing these birdies on an assorted array of papers such asÂ watercolor,Â Cryogen White, and heavy weight card stocks. Today Iâ€™ve printed my digi image on a digital paper calledÂ Pure White Gloss (card) andÂ watercolor paper for the post-it note book. Pure White Gloss from TheÂ Papertemptress storeÂ is the same paper that most of your favorite high end glossy magazines are printed on. I love thisÂ text weight glossy paper for printing my birds! My card, post-it note cover and skinny notepad holder Â feature Pop Tones in in orange fizz and hot fudge. Gotta love the names of the Pop Tones card stock…yum. Â These projects are very clean and simple, yet the contrasting textures add such a nice touch. Iâ€™m enjoying experimenting with all the lovely papers to be found at theÂ Papertemptress store. You can order most of these specialty papers in very small Â quantities if you choose. Isnâ€™t that such a nice way to try them out before investing in a whole pack?! Stop by and try some of Â those fabulous papers and card stock. And don’t forget to check out the beautiful ribbons too! Â ;D
